Computer hacking, Mr. Robot, Tom Brady and the St. Louis Cardinals

Last night I watched the pilot episode of a new USA show called Mr. Robot.  It's really cool--the main character is a vigilante computer hacker who appears to be a combination of Batman and Showtime's Dexter.  However, one scene caught me off guard and left me quite shaken (click on the video in the tweet):

I really enjoyed the pilot of USA's "Mr. Robot", but the part with Tom Brady irked me to no end: https://t.co/lhHdE7o7gI

"It feels like all our heroes are counterfeit."  Lance Armstrong, Bill Cosby and Tom Brady?  Really USA.  Wow.  Can that be what people actually think?

After watching that show last night, I was fairly amused to see the headline today FBI investigates Cardinals for hacking.

Whoa, this St. Louis Cardinals hacking thing sounds nuts. Clearly the Patriots must be responsible...

I'm extremely curious to see where this story goes, and whether or not it will be a bigger deal than taking air out of some footballs.
